Good points and questions.
I do feel that the home office/ in power political party should have an input to sentence lengths. This can be very useful to target emerging trends. The riot being a good one. Riot and we will hit you with big sentences. Also I know it's a long time ago but after...
It was his inference in his question and previous posts which he challenged/ doubted when it was stated that police have no control over sentencing.
I took his question as a sarcastic one but if it was a genuine question then I do apologise. And I do mean that.

If you think back it was the government and Home Secretary who said that anyone caught rioting would receive the maximum possible sentences. This was in an attempt to stop the disorder and calm the tensions. People...
